Tech Tips

I have performed an alignment with a CAD model. However when I execute the "CAD=Part" command my measured features do not line up with my CAD model. What happened? Also the "CAD = Part" command is now missing from my alignment dialogue window.

The alignment you have created does not have the same origin and axis directions as your CAD model. You need to reevaluate your alignment and ensure that the alignment that you create is the same alignment that the CAD model is using. You may edit your existing alignment and re-execute the command "CAD = Part". You will find another shortcut to the "CAD=Part" command under the "Operation" -> "Graphics display window" pull down menu.
